Don't let the pump fool you. They don't use it, they are greatly displeased with the amount of compartment and ground ladder space that was lost by adding the pump and tank.

Not trying to be a smart @$$, but then why did they spec it and/or order the truck that way? Or was this an experimental order to see if they were going to like the ladder/pump combo?
